Did Super Bowl 50 Break Ratings Records?
The lower television numbers correspond to record streaming numbers this year: 3.96 million viewers watched the game online, a new high for CBS and NFL digital properties.
The most-watched broadcast of all time remains last year's Super Bowl XLIX, which averaged 114.4 million viewers and peaked when 120.8 million viewers tuned into NBC to watch the New England Patriots' fourth-quarter comeback over the Seattle Seahawks.
